Information on the case from local sources, may or may not be correct : McGhee was last seen in the 3900 block of Ridgedale Street in Memphis, Tennessee on May 12, 2015. She dropped her sons off her father's house and said she was going to stay for dinner, but then she changed her mind and decided to go home.
That night, McGhee's parents got a call from her children's father. He said McGhee had hit him in the face after an argument. He called the police, but by the time they arrived she was gone. When her mother tried to call her, McGhee didn't answer the phone. She has never been heard from again.
It's uncharacteristic of her to leave without warning. Since her disappearance she hasn't used her EBT (electronics benefit transfer) card. Her car, a tan/brown 1999 Ford Contour with tape on the driver's side window and the Tennessee license plate number 302ZTG, has not been located. Her case remains unsolved.

September 2021 updates and sources
A missing person is a person who has disappeared and whose status as alive or dead cannot be confirmed as their location and condition are not known. A person may go missing through a voluntary disappearance, or else due to an accident, crime, death in a location where they cannot be found (such as at sea), or many other reasons. In most parts of the world, a missing person will usually be found quickly. While criminal abductions are some of the most widely reported missing person cases, these account for only 2�5% of missing children in Europe.
By contrast, some missing person cases remain unresolved for many years. Laws related to these cases are often complex since, in many jurisdictions, relatives and third parties may not deal with a person's assets until their death is considered proven by law and a formal death certificate issued. The situation, uncertainties, and lack of closure or a funeral resulting when a person goes missing may be extremely painful with long-lasting effects on family and friends.
Several organizations seek to connect, share best practices, and disseminate information and imAge at the time of disappearance: s of missing children to improve the effectiveness of missing children investigations, including the International Commission on Missing Persons, the International Centre for Missing & Exploited Children (ICMEC), as well as national organizations, including the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children in the US, Missing People in the UK, Child Focus in Belgium, and The Smile of the Child in Greece.
